Hikarunix: The Go Distro

Posted by michael on from the go-fish dept.

LGRiske writes "In this day and age of the Unreal Final Fantasy of Doom 3 it's nice to see a 4000 year old board game keep up the pace. There's now a whole Linux distribution dedicated to learning, playing and studying the oldest strategy game in the world, Go/Baduk/WeiQi. Named Hikarunix it is based on DamnSmallLinux, the Live Linux CD, and is small enough to fit on a 3" (80mm) miniCD. It is meant for Go players of all levels whether you've never even heard of the game or have been playing for decades."

    I think most of us have had basic math

    I don't recall the capacity of a miniCD being part of the math curriculum.

    In my last relationship me and my girl used to play "the tiger game" where she would pretend to be a police woman trying to capture a tiger (me) who escaped from the zoo.

    I'd growl and crawl round the floor and stuff with my little home made tail and ears and she'd try to capture me without me mauling her. It was the best fun we ever had even though there was no sex involved.

    I started seeing someone new last month and I suggested this to her. We gave it a go, but she wasn't really into it and said it was stupid and weird.

    How can I get her to play and actually enjoy it? Or do I need to find a more fun girl?
